Bonded Porcelain Restorations in the Anterior Dentition

This reference is based on the biomimetic principal, i.e. the idea that the intact tooth in its ideal hues, shades, and intracoronal anatomy and location in the arch is the guide to reconstruction and the determinant of success. Pascal Magne and Urs Belser (both of the U. of Geneva School of Dentistry) present nine chapters dealing with returning all of the prepared dental tissues to full function by the creation of a hard tissue bond that allows functional stress to pass through the tooth, drawing the entire crown into the final esthetic result.
